Standard
ASTM  F3172-15 (Reapproved 2021)
Standard Guide for Design Verification Device Size and Sample Size Selection for Endovascular Devices
Scope/Abstract
1.1 This guide provides guidance for selecting an appropriate device (s) and determining an appropriate sample (s) (that is, number of samples) for design verification testing of endovascular devices. A methodology is presented to determine which device (s) should be selected for testing to verify the device design adequately for each design input requirement (that is, test characteristic). Additionally, different statistical approaches are presented and discussed to help guide the developer to determine and justify sample (s) for the design input requirement being verified. Alternate methodologies for determining device selection and sample selection may be acceptable for design verification....
